Tuesday July 29, 2008 - This Saturday, July 27th the Saga Humane Society held a huge yard sale, raffle and fundraiser in central park. The day was a great success, raising $2,500.00 for the homeless and suffering animals of San Pedro. Everyone who attended enjoyed food, drinks, prizes, and bargains galore!
The $1.00 entry fee that will help provide food for hungry puppies and kittens also entered everyone into a raffle. Congratulations to: Ricardo Magana who won a bottle of wine, Aislee Mesh who won a bottle of Chanel No. 5 perfume, Gladys Kimmel who took home a bottle of coffee liquor, Adrian who won a fancy dog collar, Sharon Boyd who won a doggie traveling case, Leslie Hernandez who took home a framed picture, and Eileen Jamison who won a cat mug. The raffles for various bottles of liquor were won by: Amy B, Colette Kase, Rudy, and Oscar Guiterrez. Congratulations and cheers! And congratulations to Simon Backley who won the grand IPOD raffle!
The day would not have been such a success without the help of everyone who donated their time and the local businesses that supported us. Saga would like to thank: the San Pedro town board for donating tables and tents, Gecko Graphics for providing free printing, Hariri’s Store for donating a bottle of whiskey, and Pedro from Pedro’s Pizza for donating pizza and chairs for everyone’s weary feet. Saga would also like to give special thanks to the volunteers who made the day such a success: Sharon Boyd, Cindy Vigna, Colette Kase, Beth Hart, Jan Brown, Alanna Burney, Wade Van Doren, Bradley Bachman, everyone that supported us by buying booths, and everyone that came out to spend the day with Saga. Even the puppies and kittens had a great time, and were ecstatic to see the community come together for such a worthy cause!

April 17, 2007 - The Saga Humane Society would like to announce the success of its second annual Easter raffle. Saga raised approximately $100.00 and one happy puppy and kitten each went home with a basket full of treats for the holiday. Miriam Rodriguez’s kitten, and Joselyn Palma’s puppy were the happy recipients.
In other Saga news, we would like to announce our Annual General Meeting. We will be meeting at The Blue Water Grill on Thursday April 26th at 5:00 PM. The public is invited to come and hear about our accomplishments, make suggestions, and find out how you can help your local humane society.
Finally, we would like to mention our ongoing Annual Fund Drive. Once a year the Saga Humane Society sends letters to all local businesses requesting donations. Saga does its best to educate the public about humane care of all animals, and to provide low cost preventative veterinary care to the public. We cannot continue to do this without the help and support of the entire community. The work that the Saga Humane Society does on this island makes it a healthier, happier place for everyone, residents and tourists alike. So, do a good deed today, and support your local humane society!

February 21, 2007 - Skydive fundraiser press release
Saga Humane Society is happy to announce the success of its most recent fundraiser. Rich Grimm and Tsunami Skydivers were back in San Pedro this month, and as part of their community minded expedition, they donated yet another free tandem skydive for Saga to raffle.
Even with weather delays, the day was a great success!
Saga was able to raise over $1,200.00 which will go towards finishing Phase I of the new improved “Fort Dog”.
Nadege Welsh was the winner of the tandem skydive. Due to weather complications, she will be taking her dive when Tsunami returns.
Saga would like to thank everyone who supported us by buying tickets, and the volunteers who came out to help with the bake sale and festivities at the landing site, especially Linda Carter, our champion ticket seller! We would also like to give a special thanks to Rich Grimm and Tsunami Skydivers for their continued support.
We hope everyone enjoyed their stay, and their most invigorating view of La Isla Bonita.
